COCOLAND
Solved/Closed
Hello everyone,
I received an email about cocoland that was blocking me on MSN. Unfortunately, I signed up. Since then, my contacts on MSN no longer recognize me. I appear under the name cocoland. I'm furious. It's a hassle.
I looked on the cocoland page but found nothing to unsubscribe. Could you please help me? Thank you.

ContributorHello
I assume you provided your MSN username/password on Cocoland?
If so, change your password and MSN secret question right away.

Hi
I also got caught but I don't think completely
when I gave my password and username I was logged into MSN and of course I logged out, so I immediately logged back in and there was an error message from them saying either bad password or bad login
Did they still manage to hack me???
In any case, thanks to your discussion I immediately went to change my password
I hope it's okay
But really, I didn't think
Thanks -
@Titiayes me too I got caught
so I changed my password too
but I have Windows Live Messenger on my phone
and every time I log in, the username cocoland appears!
I wanted to change it but nothing works
so if anyone has a solution to suggest to me
Thanks in advance! -

the site has nothing to do with this
this kind of message is about who blocked you and it's a phishing trap to recover your password and username since you give them away lol
avoid giving these codes and you will never be hacked -

You really have to be very dumb to share your password on a site...
Copy your contacts and create a new hotmail account. -
Hello!!
When I logged in for the first time to Cocoland, they didn't ask me anything, that's why I don't understand how you got hacked. -
Hi, I had the same problem. I changed my username and it's fine now. It doesn't matter; it's like when you go on the Windows Messenger site to see who has blocked you, it does the same thing. They go through you to advertise themselves, that's it. You go to the menu, delete their phrase, write a phrase or leave it blank, and your MSN address appears.

Hey guys!
It's weird, Cocoland has never asked me for my MSN or password!
I went there, I looked at who was blocking me, but I've never had a problem!
And besides, Cocoland is not software, it's a website, right? -
Hello, I want to thank you because I was about to sign up and if I hadn't read your message, I might have been hacked. Thank you.

Hello everyone! I've already taken three days to write to you because I'm doing my best not to make mistakes, which is really hard for me --' !! So I occasionally go on cocoland and I didn't need to install anything, I just go to the site, enter my username, my age, my department, and hoop, it's good! I find it strange that it's so easy for me, while you all talk about installation and everything!! Anyway, there's one really annoying thing: when I log in to cocoland, it sends a message to all my contacts saying that cocoland is a site to see who blocks us on msn and all, so it ends up being an ad!! So, it would be nice if you could clarify this for me!! I wish you a good evening!!! I hope I didn't make too many mistakes!!!!!! Tchousssss :D

I'm fed up with MSN because you can just get into anywhere and it pisses me off. Please, Cocoland, I need help.
-
And is it possible not to have any issues if we provide a fake email to Cocoland? Have a nice day everyone.

Hello everyone
Just a little info, you may not have direct problems, but all your contacts may be receiving a message from you almost constantly telling them to go to the site
Then you have the lag problems. Basically, the little one who connects whenever he wants to your computer and runs tasks in the background
After all, it's not specifically hacking either, because hacking takes on a different meaning, which is to say that we assume we know nothing or very little about the IP address (for example) of the person we want to connect to
In this case, you are providing all the data they need to the server to come and play around with your MSN account
Indeed, not everyone realizes that the links are dodgy one time out of two, and I'm being nice
Then low-level formatting or XP will do nothing because your computer doesn't have anything, maybe two or three temporary files with access codes and messages to send to your friends on your list
Furthermore, changing passwords will not change anything because if the guy who built this site thought a little to mess with the people, he could very well integrate a keylogger into the temporary files, which could send everything you type on your keyboard (the passwords, the Word document, your account numbers,...)
So the best thing to do before doing anything and everything, my advice is to start by banning the site on your routers, box, and to carefully check the open ports
Block those that shouldn't be open, and then use software like Malwarebytes or Spybot (free) which will be much more effective for cleaning up your temporary files
Also remember to clear your browser cache and cookies
And once you've done all that, change your passwords and security questions for MSN and anything else you might have used in the meantime (bank account, eBay,...)
Finally, that's in the extreme case, I would say, MSN should suffice for most cases
Here’s basically the process I would follow in your situation -
me too, I also went on this site and I also had the word cocoland. I changed my username, I changed my password, and after that the word no longer appeared.

Hello everyone,
I am a computer scientist and would like to clarify a few points:
- A computer scientist does not think like an average person (not necessarily better but differently), which explains the harshness of some colleagues. It remains unnecessary to insult a guy who asks a question, even if it seems stupid; it appears that the person who posted it wants to be less so, so it's better to help...
- There are no stupid people, just poorly informed individuals and many idiots who spread nonsense on forums.
- One should not believe the silly chain messages that circulate on the internet. Little Noélie, Amélie has been dead for a long time, and if you are looking to find out who is blocking you on MSN, you are trying to undermine another user's information confidentiality. It's not surprising that a site takes advantage of this to harm your privacy...
For the record, your MSN account information is stored on the hotmail, live, or Microsoft site, it's up to you to choose, not on cocochose. If you are a victim of this issue, the good practice is what was mentioned above: go to the site https://account.live.com/ and change your secret question and then your password. In this order, it seems more prudent because if you change the password and cocoland tries to reconnect, it could use the secret question to reset it. So 1: secret question, 2: password.
For a valid password mix:
- Uppercase
- Lowercase
- Numbers
- Special characters (* ! : / ;) depending on permissions
Minimum of 6 characters, 8 recommended, 14 magnificent! MSN will already tell you if it is good upon creation even if it's a minimal check.
Do not use easily found data: name, surname, brand, street, city, date of birth, etc.
If your password only makes sense to you, that's great, especially if it does not appear in a dictionary.
Avoid "god"... too classic.
Then I can only recommend downloading Ad-Aware (www.lavasoft.fr/Ad-Aware) free and effective, and then Spybot (https://www.safer-networking.org/download/ also free.
Take the latest version and update it.
Make sure you have up-to-date antivirus software (AVG 8.5 free is free) avoid Avast which is a sieve (I'm speaking from experience) and Securitoo.
Always keep at least the Windows firewall enabled.
Always have the latest security updates for Windows and third-party software (Firefox, Thunderbird, Java, Flashplayer, Internet Explorer, etc.)
Finally, the most logical thing would be to disable system restore and then restart in safe mode without network support (F8 during startup after the BIOS display on a black background) and proceed with a thorough scan with all these tools and restart your computer.
Run a defragmentation and remember to reactivate system restore...
Everything should work.
If you have Orange, know that the tools supplied by Orange only serve to mess up your PC and are useless for making your Dongle or Wi-Fi sensor and your Livebox work...
Otherwise, feel free to switch to Linux ;).
I hope to have helped some, @+ -
Good evening!
I have the same issue, but I haven't registered on this site, I haven't even received an invitation from cocoland to watch anything! It connects under my name up to 5 times a day and leaves links for my contacts.
It's not installed in my programs.
How can I get rid of it??? I saw that I should try changing the password but I don't really want to (unless I'm really forced to!) especially since it hasn't been effective for everyone... Thank you in advance! -
well it's funny because I signed up on this chat site of my own accord without anyone suggesting it to me.
I was NEVER asked for my email address or my password.
the scam must come from the email, not from the site
but that's an opinion, not information... -
Hey, I went to Cocoland and I didn't have any problems and I got the list of people who blocked me, there you go... good luck to everyone...

Hello,
I'm very glad not to be the only one who has NO problem with CocoLand. In fact, I don’t understand at all the issues that all these internet users are having.
I must say that I have an antivirus on M.S.N.
P.S. The only thing that surprises me is that we cannot uninstall it!
And that there is no microphone.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Dad.

I want to know who is blocking me on MSN.

First of all, thank you all for your explanations.
Next, I myself got hacked by cocoland and as a result my contacts are telling me they're receiving links to pornographic sites or VIRUSES!
I would like to ask you how I can stop this and I inform you in advance that I just changed my password.
If someone could help me that would be nice ^^
See you soon
